Founded in 1956, the Center is the nation's leading authority on philanthropy and is dedicated to serving grantseekers, grantmakers, researchers, policymakers, the media, and the general public.
The Council is a membership organization that serves the public good by promoting and enhancing responsible and effective philanthropy. It provides leadership expertise, legal services and networking opportunities - among other services - to members and to the general public.
The Roundtable is a national association of individual donors, corporate giving representatives, foundation staff and trustees, and trust and estate officers. As an organization dedicated to serving donors' needs, the Roundtable represents a unique resource for those who want to make the most of their giving.
Representing a wide variety of funding organizations, the CNJG was created based on the principle that philanthropy can be more effective when grantmakers have the opportunity for communication, information exchange and continuing education.
